Different charging modes
Standard mode In standard mode, charging takes place at the preset amperage (e.g. 16 A). The
level of charging current can be changed by pressing the pushbutton on the Wat-
tpilot. In the app (see Current level on page 49), the charging current can be
adjusted in 1 ampere increments.
In standard mode, no operating mode LEDs light up.
Whereas charging at a low charging current is gentle, charging at a high charging
current enables rapid charging. If necessary, charging is carried out with electri-
city sourced from the grid.
NOTE!
Standard mode
Standard mode is the standard setting of the Wattpilot; no LEDs light up white.
In this charging mode, the PV surplus and the flexible electricity tariff are not
taken into account.
▶
No further settings are required for standard mode.
Eco Mode In Eco Mode, a vehicle is only charged when low-cost electricity is available.
Charging can either take place with cheaply purchased electricity (see Flexible
electricity tariff on page 25) or surplus energy produced by the photovoltaic sys-
tem (see PV surplus on page 22). There is no guarantee that charging will occur.
Prerequisite
Charging in Eco Mode is only possible if PV surplus and/or a Flexible electricity
tariff is activated under PV surplus in the Fronius Solar.wattpilot app.
NOTE!
Change mode for guaranteed charging.
If there is no surplus generated power or cheap electricity available, charging is
not carried out in Eco Mode.
▶
Change mode for guaranteed charging.
Enable
Eco Mode can be configured in the app under Cost optimisation on page 49 and
activated by pressing the pushbutton (< 0.5 s) or via the Fronius Solar.wattpilot
app.
NOTE!
The battery of the photovoltaic system is discharged first!
If the system contains a stationary battery, the battery of the photovoltaic sys-
tem is discharged when the electricity price falls below the threshold before
mains current is drawn.
